Abstract

Disclosed herein is a package that can hold medical supplies, such as a series of orthopedic implants like a femoral stem component for a prosthetic hip, the series of implants having dimensions that vary minimally throughout the series but The general specifications vary considerably. The packaging is designed to minimize the travel of any components of the series packaged therein so that all packaged components in the series can be handled by standard handling typically used by manufacturers of medical supplies such as implants. and shipping trials, and preferably includes two thermoformed tray parts each with three types of cavities interconnected and designed to be assembled with their cavities facing each other to accommodate the stem parts respectively The stem, body and horn, the cavities for the stem and the cavities for the body cooperate to hold the series of minimally varying sizes.

Description

Background technique [0001] Packaging of femoral stem components used in orthopedic hip arthroplasty procedures has traditionally involved the use of inserts to stabilize the stem component within the package, and these inserts have been custom-made to the specifications of the specific stem component. A large number of sizes of stem components exist, with some manufacturers offering as many as ten sizes to better meet the needs of individual patients. [0002] Traditional packaging of sterile medical devices, such as implants including stem components, has involved a system of an inner tray within an outer tray. Each tray is typically an open, cavity with a perimeter to which a film is adhered to create a sealed package. The outer tray simply houses the inner tray, which in turn houses the medical equipment, usually stabilized within the tray with closed cell foam pieces. These foam members are usually selected to have a configuration that is compatible with the particular ...
